content
In the documentation, the consequences of the bankruptcy of the paper mill of Schlöglmühl ( Lower Austria ) for the residents of the place and the surrounding area are discussed. In December 1982 the company was closed. Almost 270 employees lost their jobs as a result. Many former workers fell into alcoholism because of a lack of prospects, or suffered from depression or melancholy .
It also shows the protests against the closure and the unsuccessful efforts to gain a wider public and a political lobby. Only those affected have their say.
